Shout out to Arkansas, baby. I'm love native. Already. I already know I cannot hit Joe and Ocho. You don't believe that. Keep it 100. Just keep it 100, man. It's okay. It's okay.

19:37Yeah. Oh, Lord, have mercy. Yeah, hey, hey, he'll jack all trades. He do a little bit of everything. We play baseball. We play soccer, football, basketball. Yeah, it's everything. saying, huh? Hey, I just look like this, huh? Hey, hey, I'm telling you. I know I can out-bat you two. No, you out-bat Ocho. It's funny. Only one of us has a baseball background, so I'm not even going to indulge myself in this conversation. I'm going to let you two talk about it. I'm going to let you two talk about it because when it comes to that, I ain't even point even talking. That's like, Joe, you telling me you better than me in football or soccer or ping pong or tennis.

20:15You already said it. You already said that you can't hit no baseball, Ocho. You said it came out your mouth. I said 95 to 100 miles an hour in the batting cage, and neither one of y 'all can either. You said 85. You couldn't hit 80. You said, I ain't even going to try. I can hit it. I mean, I haven't done. Joe, no, you can't. How many tries do you need? How many tries do you need? Do you know it's going to take you 30 minutes for your hand-eye coordination to get together to see the goddamn ball? Man, everybody know you don't swing at the first pitch, partner. Oh, here you go. Everybody know that.

20:45Now he's acting like he's in the middle of a goddamn game. Yeah, everybody know you're a queen. He Tony Gwynn, huh, Ocho? Hey, hey, hey, set it up. I bet I outdoor these boys. These boys can't see me in nothing for real. I'm just going to keep it 100 with y 'all. Yeah.

Why am I going bowling? I look up at the screen. I see, damn, they got a Mixon Hawks game up here. It's the second quarter. I see Jackson Daniels hitting. I'm like, what are they hitting for? He justified. Why are y 'all losing 77 to 22? But for the half? What? Man, it's going to be a rough couple months for you, Joe. I know it's already been rough.

29:35Shannon Sharpe:Let's take a listen to the next one.

29:41So, and still, can we talk about how there's more of an expectation for a 41-year-old basketball player to beat the Rockets without his stars than it is for a three-time MVP, Jokic, to get bounced in the first? Since one with the expectations That lopsided Anyways Peace out I mean I can answer that I don't even watch basketball like that It's LeBron though It's different I mean I understand the comparison With Jokic and LeBron but we talk about the chosen one We talk about King James We talk about the one that was anointed When he was born you hear me We talk about Gloria James son right That one?

30:37Yeah. Savannah husband? He's held to a different expectation. He chooses to play this long in his career. Yeah. You know? So therefore, we're expecting him to look like, you say it all the time, Monk, we don't judge LeBron on how he looks right now. We're judging LeBron on what he looked like before in his prime throughout. So we're expecting him to always play at that level, regardless of how old

31:02Shannon Sharpe:he is. I'm glad you said that. So why didn't they judge Jordan like that when when he was in Washington. Hmm. Huh? Yeah. Why didn't they judge Michael Jordan to the standard that he was playing at in Chicago when he was in Washington? Well, you just asked me a question, Uncle, I don't know the answer to. You, but hold on, you said, I said they don't compare great players to other great players, they compare players to them younger selves. So why wasn't Michael Jordan? Because everybody said, everybody know he wasn't, he the GOAT. he's supposed to win with anybody. Yeah. Jokic, Jokic is not 35.

31:40Shannon Sharpe:Jokic is 29. If LeBron James, LeBron James coming off three MVPs in four years had lost in the first round to a team without their best player, they'd have crucified him. Yeah. He's held to a different standard. I just want to know that. Huh? Hold on. How's a guy held to a different standard when everybody say he ain't in the top 10? Some people got him at 9. Some people got him at 11. Some people got him at 13. So why would you hold a guy that's the ninth best player, the 13th best player? He's a choke. He's a this. Why would you hold him to a standard that you don't hold any other great players to?

32:23Hey, because they like the conversation. They like the dialogue going back and forth, knowing absolutely how great he is, knowing when it comes to picking who's the GOAT and who's the best. It only comes down to two people, and it's based on preference. Now, if you want to nitpick, you run down accolades and resume and how long someone played and what they did in a short amount of time in their careers. It's always comparable, but it's always going to be one and two. It's either going to be Jordan or it's going to be LeBron. And everyone will have a dialogue and a conversation on why they support whoever it is that they choose.

32:54Shannon Sharpe:Okay. Why didn't they hold Kobe in year 17, 18, year 19, year 20? Why didn't they hold him to the standard that when he played at in his prime?

33:10Shannon Sharpe:Kobe's a little better than LeBron. That's what they tell me. Michael's better than LeBron. That's what they tell me. So why weren't they held to the same standard that we're holding LeBron to? Kobe played 20 years. So why in year 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, Why wasn't he held to the standard that we hold LeBron? Why wasn't Jordan, when he went to Washington, those two years, why wasn't he held to the standard? That's all I want to know. You can say, I don't care, Shannon. They're still better than LeBron. Why weren't they held to the standard? Why weren't they expected to not only make the playoffs, but I want to hear them Lakers fans.

33:52Shannon Sharpe:Where are the Lakers fans that with all this, like, LeBron need to get traded? I'd be glad. B. Scott. But I'm going to need you to come on nightcap and explain because you said you wish he was gone. You do realize if LeBron wasn't on that team, when Luke and AR got hurt, there'd have been no playoffs. You wouldn't even made it in the play-in. So I need all them Laker fans to talk about he need to go, he need to go, now look at you. So again, Ocho, this is for you. Joe, this is not for you. Ocho, Kobe played 20 seasons. So why in year 15, year 16, year 17, year 18, year 19, year 20, why was he not expected to get to the NBA finals and win?

34:32Shannon Sharpe:Why was Michael Jordan not expected to win a championship in Washington? I need somebody to explain that to me. I like that you asked me that. See, that's a handicapped question for somebody who didn't watch the game back then. That's not fair. I understand how great Michael Jordan was. I understand how great Kobe was. But I ain't started watching basketball until I had to come on nightcap. Chad, I need y 'all to explain to me. Chad, y 'all know. Y 'all are some of the foremost authorities. Y 'all have been watching the game of basketball a lot longer than I have. I need you to explain why was Kobe never held in year 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20 to the standard which y 'all held LeBron.

35:14Shannon Sharpe:Why was Jordan – didn't anybody like – hold on. Jordan, he played two years. Now people say, oh, that was just ceremony. So it didn't even matter. so if he'd have won a championship would it have matter yeah yeah it would have of course yeah I saw people say oh what hell I was in my early 30s I was in my 30s mid 30s 34 35 when Jordan was in Washington I heard people say LeBron James are never going to be able to play like this at age 40 what Michael's doing right now at 40 LeBron will never be able to do Are y 'all sure about that? I got time. We got about 15 more minutes. I think it's the hate that LeBron gets is from his longevity in the game, fellas.

36:10You know, they crucify him for that Uncle Ocho because he got all the records. Oh, he ain't the best scorer. Shit, he got the most points. and he top what three four in assists when he's done he's gonna probably gonna have them to every record in the book so so when they watch him when they watch him compete and play uncle ocho the standard that the fans hold him to is a lot higher than what they held mj and kobe to it i have a question what's up when things went bad for jordan did he ever leave You remember he retired? But things were bad for Kobe, did he ever leave? He retired twice. He retired twice.

36:55Shannon Sharpe:You remember that, right? I said, did he ever leave? He left. He left the game of basketball, yes. I'm just saying. He left the game of basketball twice. Did he go to another team? He wouldn't play baseball. He left the game of basketball. He went, yes, he left the team. He went to the Chicago Black Sox. He went to the White Sox, excuse me. Did Kobe ever leave a team? He tried. he asked to get traded to Chicago Bulls. He did. He did. He wanted to get traded. He did. Asked for a trade. Something LeBron never did. Hmm. Okay, anything else you want to know? I got a little time. I'm just asking questions to get a better understanding on why people feel the way they do about LeBron.

37:42So you asked me a question I don't know because my knowledge of the game is not like that. I just started watching.

37:46Shannon Sharpe:because in their heart of hearts, LeBron James is the only one that's ever been compared to Michael Jordan. Yeah. He's the only one. Only one.

38:01Shannon Sharpe:We have never said in the history of sports a guy with one regular season MVP was even considered the greatest. Right. They've always had more than one. Yes. More than one.

38:18Shannon Sharpe:They make it seem like LeBron got no titles.

38:24Shannon Sharpe:Even before Jordan even won a title, they labeled him the greatest. Magic and Bird had all the titles in the 80s. They won eight of the 10 that was contested. Right. And they said Jordan was the greatest. With no rings.

38:44Shannon Sharpe:with no rings they labeled him the greatest because of his plate so if that's all it takes then so why are we talking about rings then so why they keep mentioning 6-0 because of the plate why we mention 6-0 hey you know they love to move the goalposts depending on who and what they talking about I mean look at this I just I'm just saying, they move the goalposts depending on who and what they're talking about. That's the only thing I can think of. He played, I mean, look what he did. I mean, look, what did he average? 23 points, 8 and 7, 23, 8 and 7, something like that. The oldest player to lead a series in scoring.

39:32Shannon Sharpe:At 41? And people say, you break? No, it's the fact. The mere fact of the matter is 41.

39:43Shannon Sharpe:who picked hey if I'm not mistaken I think Mark Spears was the only one to pick the Lakers to win the series everybody else said the Rockets ain't no way a 41 year old can lead a team to a victory lead this team to a series win

40:06hey what we what we can't do We can't use the 41 excuse when things don't work out.

40:13Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, we use it when he's 41. Let me ask you a question. Name the player in NBA history that's ever played at this level. Do we not give Jerry Rice credit for catching a 40 to catch a thousand yards at age 40? 42, wasn't he? 42. No, he retired at 42, but he had a thousand yards receiving at age 40. Do we not give him credit for that? Yeah. Damn. Why?

40:45Shannon Sharpe:Because he's doing something. What, Ocho? Nobody has ever done. Speak it to your microphone. Something that's never, ever been done before in the history of the game. Yes, sir. Okay. I was happy. Chet, I was happy to mind. I've been around with Ocho for three years now. Sometimes I can finish his thoughts for him. Yeah. I'm just listening. I'm just listening. I'm just listening. Listen, I like all of them. Shoot, you know, I'm a LeBron fan. I'm a Kobe fan. Hell, I'm a Jordan fan, you know. So, I mean, I'm just, I'm liking to hear the differences on why people feel the way they do when it comes to LeBron or why they feel the way they do when it comes to Kobe or why they feel the way they do when it comes to Michael Jordan.

41:26I'm still learning that stuff. The people in the chat, they know it all. They've been enjoying the game of basketball probably since birth. Joe I'm only in year two of this thing Joe I'm only in year two now we talking boxing Joe I can talk from A to Z boy we talking football I can talk from A to Z now we talking soccer hell I can talk for 24 hours straight you know we talking tennis we talking a little track I can give you something basketball ooh that's my weak spot Joe hear me yes sir I'm okay I can admit that you know some people won't admit that they try to act like they know it all I don't know it all especially when it comes to this

42:06Shannon Sharpe:I'm learning on the fly I'll make a case for you if I like you there ain't nothing you look at it right now do we see what's going on we see what's going on in the world we see where our economy is we see what the prices are it was supposed to be no more war we jumped into another needless endless war and what because they like it President Obama just had a Starbucks coffee in his hand that's beneath the president he had a tan suit on that's beneath the president oh yeah I remember that they went crazy by that tan suit he was clean as hell that day boy he was sharp that day you see I like you Ocho you can't do no wrong in my eyes but if I don't you can do no good in my eyes that's just the way it is you got to understand i think it's more difficult now even even if you say let's just say for the sake of argument the game is not more difficult ip vanish protects every device you own your phone your laptop your smart tv if it connects to the internet it should be protected ip vanish encrypts your connection and masks your ip address helping keep your browsing private at home and on public Wi-Fi.

47:47Shannon Sharpe:It's more difficult to play in the social media era. Yeah, yeah. Not even close. It is.

47:56Yeah.

47:58Shannon Sharpe:The thing that happened with Vrabel and Miss Rossini, if that had been in the 70s, the 80s, and 90s, that had never got out. Mm. Yeah.

48:13Shannon Sharpe:Let's move on. Well, we got another one to go. We all didn't go. I know too much, but anyway, let's move on. We got one more. Is that it? Oh, that was it. That was it. That was it. Omar Sadiq, Cade will dominate. Scottie was the best player in this series with all due respect. You think Cade will dominate this series, Joe and Ocho? Shoot, he's been dominating. He's one person you can always count on to get his, huh? Hold on, against Cleveland? Yes. Hell yeah, he's going to dominate. Meaning, I think he know exactly what we've been talking about. Detroit going to have a hard time winning if he's not putting up special performances.

48:53Period, point blank. You know, you just got to hope that Tobias Harris can stay consistent. That's it. I think he the key. That's the biggest key.

49:05Shannon Sharpe:I think he the key, Joe. I honestly do. Yeah. The man's own killer, Ocho. Y 'all hype these NBA playoffs. Let me find out. Y 'all like it more than NFL. Nah, I'm joking. I know football's still y 'all first love. But the thing is that we had game sevens. You do realize the NFL playoffs, every game is a game seven. Yeah. Ain't no series. Ain't no series, Ocho and Joe. You're right. Every game is a game seven in the NFL postseason. Yeah. That's why the people love it so much. Because you can be the best team and not – the best team will probably – it's hard for the best team to lose four times. Yeah.

49:48Shannon Sharpe:But one time – That's why the series – I don't know if you remember this joke. The series used to be the best two out of three. The first round was the best two out of three. Yeah. The second round was the best three out of five. It was only the conference finals, and the finals were the best four out of seven. So you know why they moved them all to seven games. Hello, hello. The same reason they add more playoff game. The same reason they trying to add another NFL football game, Ocho. Hello. The bottom line has always been the bottom line. Huh? The bonus in the penalties, you got three shots to make two.

50:26Shannon Sharpe:So you used to shoot three free throws to try to make two.

50:33Shannon Sharpe:So if you made the first two, it was done and boy, you good. But if you missed the first one, you got two more to try to make two. Yes, sir. But that was before y 'all time, y 'all remember that. Flat attendant, defense and grit. Cade in the mix, Pistons and six.

Then you don't eat unless you catch something. I bet, Lord have mercy.

55:57Shannon Sharpe:I'm all for it. Listen, Lord can't help you here. No. Lord can't help you here. He walked on water, but he can't help you here. Hey, hey, boy, this is gonna be a sight to see. I already know, I already know, Jay.

56:13Shannon Sharpe:He wanna take some live grouper. Well, catch a black grouper. I got, hey, hey. I'm from Miami, huh? I grew up on the water, at the water, around the water. but I did everything except walk on water. How you gonna tell me about fishing? Hey, tell her, you were weighed in the water. Huh? What are you talking about, man? Man, been doing this. Only person got baptized three times because the shit keep wearing off. Exactly. My joke. And K Fisher lick. Born by the water, born in Miami. Could walk out of his house and step right into the ocean. And K Fisher lick. Right, right. As a matter of fact, Joe, we can set deadlines.

56:57However you want to fish, Joe, whatever you want to do. Man, listen, that's why I'm saying, y 'all steady coming up with all these different things. It don't make me no different, baby. Let's just get out there and throw that thing out there. I bet y 'all catch more than y 'all, and I bet y 'all catch the biggest one.

And you saying you in that conversation. What? Yeah, okay. I got to see it. I said, Ellie, he ain't got nothing on me. KBD, Bill Dance, Roland Martin, all of them. I got to see it. Mark Inslee, none of them. It sound good. I'm him. I got to see it to believe it. It sound good. I got to see it to believe it. You got to show me, man. I plan on it. All right. Say less. Say less. And I know, Ocho, you don't even know how to clean no fish. Who don't know how to clean no fish?

58:27Boy, I scale a fish like a woman. Boy, don't play at me. Huh? What you talking about? Don't play at me, bro.

58:33Shannon Sharpe:That man don't know how to clean no damn fish. Boy, I scale a fish and clean a fish like I do a woman. Huh? From head to toe. Boy, don't play at me. Hey, Joe, from the tail to the eyes, boy. Huh? I don't play no games. OK. I'm going to do the pick. All right. God bless NACAMF. I got a miracle question. What do we say if LeBron James eliminated OKC? He's going to be the biggest upset in the history of basketball. I agree. Considering the fact what he's up against without the leading scorer in the NBA on his team, hell yeah.

59:10T.S.

59:11Shannon Sharpe:Carwise Detail Service. My grandfather told me, you want to mess with me, you better get a coat cause it's gonna be a coat on the floor.

59:23Shannon Sharpe:That's what I'm saying, Ocho. Look here. When it comes to stuff like that, when it comes to outdoors and stuff, I just eliminate Ocho. I set my aim on you, Joe. Right, cause I'm the one person the unknown. You don't know what you're gonna get. You might have did a little fishing. You might have did a little hunting. Oh, oh, oh, man. Hey, hey. Me and my partners, you know, shout out Mr. Greenwood. He used to, we used to skip school just to go fishing the whole entire day, man. Yeah. So, so I just want y 'all to know, bro. Hey, hey. I ain't like it that much, Joe. I ain't finna lie. Yeah. Yeah. Hey.

1:00:03That's, hey. Man, I ain't trying to hear them old ass stories from 1950, boy. All right. I ain't trying to hear all that, man. All right. Well we seen what happened last time we all got together Ain't nobody trying to talk about that old stuff Oh now that's old Hey update your resume What have you done to me lately Nothing except talk You ain't did number The last thing you did good Was bet on the goddamn Hawks to beat the Knicks in the series And they lost Yeah and they ain't have to pay I bet it I can't do nothing with that little change Damn right He bragging about not having to pay

1:00:40Shannon Sharpe:You hear me? You said the best thing he did was bet on the Hawks, and he said, yeah, I bet on them and I ain't gotta pay. Yeah. Damn. I told him you can keep that little chain. You keep that little chain. You ain't had no choice but to let me keep my little chain. Yeah, you keep that little chain, man. Get you some gas. Use that for some gas money. Thank you. Yeah, use that for some gas. Yeah, I will. I will. Yeah, that's your best bet. But I tell you what, we going fishing before we start football season. Say left. Say left. I'll be ready. Took my little bro to game seven, the Cavs. It was electric.

1:01:20Shannon Sharpe:Loudest game I've ever been to. As a former player, how much does away games truly affect you? I love away games. In the postseason, bro, listen, I played in a few game sevens on the road, Uncle Ocho. and yeah, it's pretty intense, bro. Like you can feel it, you can see it, you understand what it is and tonight was definitely electric. So it was fun to watch. But yeah, I know the anxiety that it brings amongst you, you know, before the game and after the game, after you get that win, that's a sign of relief. For sure. Yeah. I think there's less pressure playing on the road than there is playing at home.

1:02:06No question. No question.

1:02:11Shannon Sharpe:Ill Magic, y 'all think Toronto would have beaten the Cavs if they had Pascal Siakam? Man, Siakam been gone for so long, man. They didn't have B.I., but B.I. hadn't played his best basketball in this series. They probably would have beat him up. If they didn't have B.I.? Pascal. Pascal Siakam. I'm saying because he not only a scorer, he a great utility guy. He don't just score. You know, solid defender. Yeah. Plays the right way. Plays hardest. I don't know what. So, if they'd have had him, possibly. Big three. Love you guys. Go Broncos. Fire sale, the Celtics team. Fire sale. Fire sale. He's like, are they going to be selling off?

1:03:02Shannon Sharpe:Look, JB and JT are coming back. The question is, what are they going to do? Derrick White makes a lot of money. I think they got Peyton Pritchard tied up. I don't know what Cueto's situation is. They re-signed Hauser. He's back. He'll be back. But I don't really know the moves, the pieces that they could make. I mean, it would be very interesting if JT had a play. Yeah. Who knows? Yeah. So, I think by them getting healthy and coming back next year, I think that's the biggest key for them bro it's the hell because if Jason Tatum would have played yeah you right Ocho we don't know what the hell would have happened R.E.K.

1:03:43Shannon Sharpe:you mentioned on Undisputed that you paid for your lady's divorce I know there's a back story how about those sixes you paid for her divorce the story was look this chick was getting a divorce he found out she was dating someone He didn't know it was me, but she found out she was dating someone. And he wanted all the money that was in the bank account. She wanted to split it. He wasn't going to sign the divorce papers until she gave him all the money. I asked her how much was in the account. She said it was this much. I said, here. Damn. And he signed the divorce papers. Mm. Damn, huh? Why that's some player shit, boy?

1:04:33That's some player stuff right there, boy.

1:04:36Shannon Sharpe:Huh? I mean, and people like, oh, bro, I'm trying to figure out. When guys buy their girlfriend a G-Wagon off the rip, get them a condo, a place off the rip. I'm trying to see, I mean, what's going on? Same thing. It's the same thing. Well, that's a whole, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, That's the one percentage that do that. That ain't everybody. Right. No. It's a select few that's able to do that off the rip. But there is only a select few that would be able to say, well, you want a divorce. I want to be with you. He's haggling over this. Okay, well, here you go. Okay, okay. I like that.

1:05:16Shannon Sharpe:How would that percent? Hey, okay. Ooh, talk your, okay, okay. No, talk your shit, boy. I don't listen. I don't go back and forth. If I like you, I don't care nothing about the simping and all that other stuff. If I like somebody, I want to be with that person. Right. Yeah. I'm going to do for that person. It's really that simple. Yeah. All that other stuff, I don't let somebody else, I wouldn't do this, I wouldn't do that. Okay, that's fine. That's you. You wouldn't. And I don't begrudge somebody that won't do something for their lady. I don't begrudge somebody that does an enormous amount for the lady my situation is my situation what you do and how you treat your lady ain't got nothing to do with shame hey boy you got that money but I got that money on how much in the account when I like somebody it's been situations if somebody look I'm the type of guy if I rock with you and if I can help I'm gonna help Yeah.

1:06:23Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I feel you on that. Yeah, that's me, that's me, that's me. But here's the thing, Joe, the problem is is that I know I'm not the only one, but everybody because guys go people, oh man, you simping the X, Y, and Z, they won't tell you the real story. Hello, hello. But I know the real story, cause you gotta realize, guys like myself and Joe and Ocho, we travel in circles. Yeah. We know some of the people, and I'm like, bro, come on now. Yeah. We know, we know, we know, we know. How's she driving a G-Wagon? She ain't got that. I know that beauty salon ain't doing that. Mm-mm.

1:07:02Mm-mm. Yeah.

1:07:05Shannon Sharpe:J.J., Allen put BTA. Kay Cunningham is that dude. True game changer. He absolutely is. He's phenomenal. He's better than I thought. He's better than I thought he would because watching him at Oklahoma State, I thought he was a good player. I ain't see this, Joe. I ain't gonna lie, Joe. I ain't see this. Well, I think he's a lot more polished. He's always been poised and patient. You know, with the ball in his hands, from the time I seen him play in high school, on to college, and now to the pros, no difference, bro. He's a big guard who can get to his spots. Obviously, three-level score, can shoot the three, shoot the midi, get to the cup, bang on you.

1:07:47But he has a nice post game. And I think probably one of the best attributes of his game is getting others involved. Because when he has high assist totals, they're hard to beat.

1:07:59Shannon Sharpe:And it makes his job easier because now they can't keep him out of the lane. Now they got to stick to their man. There you go. There you go. But he has to continue to assert himself, Arcan Ochoa, and continue to put that pressure on the defense and make their all attention come to him. And that's how he's able to get those other guys easy shots, Get him involved. The Tobias Harris's, the Duncan Robinsons, the Thompson's, you know, guys of that nature. I think the biggest thing, because he always can handle the ball, he can always defend, but I think his three-point shot, Joe, that's really expanded his game.

1:08:32It is, bro. It is. It's pretty pure. You give him a good look at it, you're going to knock it down.

1:08:41Shannon Sharpe:Oh, Joe, you need to take notes so you can dunk on ISO and then hit the too little. Hey, I'ma, I'ma, I'ma, I'ma, hey, I'ma, hey, I'ma, hey, Joe, I'ma catch it like Derek Coleman caught Shaq, boy. Boy, please. You hear me? Boy, please. Hey, Joe, you know I'm bouncy, huh? You ain't, you don't weigh enough, though. That's the problem you gon' have. Joe, I'm bouncy, Joe. You don't weigh enough. I'm a knee on your forehead, boy. You don't weigh enough. It ain't about weight, boy. Yeah, it is. Joe, that's pretty high. He got his knee on your forehead, Joe. Hey, hey, I'm gonna knee him right in his forehead.

1:09:16Oh, I got a question. You think that man can't do all this with no basketball in his hand? He ain't that damn good. If that's the case, you played the wrong damn sport, partner. No, I played the right sport. Yeah. I played the right sport. Huh? Yeah, I'm on your ass. Pause.

1:09:36Shannon Sharpe:Hey, Joe.

1:09:40Shannon Sharpe:Greedy Boat, damn, Unc. He said, damn that Ocho, your ass still sick. Yeah, you got your boys back, but that cough tearing you up. What? That cough whooping your ass over there. That's what he telling. Nah, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good. I'm good, I'm on the tear and everything, you know, getting the last little bit of mucus up outta there. Yeah. You know, it is what it is. You might wanna slow down. Real about tomorrow, Ocho, your AC woke up every day this week and you chose violence, good Lord. ain't you no violence ain't number love over here you hear me ain't number love over here don't confuse it now you know we gonna we gonna we gonna dibble and dabble with this little talking that but you know he's gonna always be love listen i'm gonna beat your ass i'm gonna hug him and tell him everything we gonna be everything gonna be all right after that damn brother franklin say that ac and that strap did a number of ocho get well soon twin oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah you know you know hey you know ain't you know ain't nothing ain't them roll a little cuddling now.

1:10:44Shannon Sharpe:Titan guy, what's up, fellas? Iso, who's the best defender you played against, and what's your favorite board game? I like Monopoly. Best defender you played against, Iso? The best defender I played against, I'll probably give it to Ron Artis. He's a guy you couldn't play with, Uncle Ocho, meaning, you know, even if you had a bag, bro, just give him one move and go on and get by his ass. You got to go, There ain't no sense out there trying to dance. I'm telling you, some guys just have a great sense of awareness with their hands and can get deflections, and he was one of those dudes, bro. So I understood that early in my career.

1:11:23Yeah, he wasn't no guy I played with. I just, ha-ha, got right by him, got on to what I was – yeah. And he got that big-ass body, so, boy. Yeah.

1:11:32Shannon Sharpe:He bigger than you. People don't realize how big he is. Yeah, he's strong. He's solid. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. As far as board games, he said his was Monopoly. I like Monopoly. I like Monopoly, too. Joe, I beat your ass in Monopoly. In Monopoly? Yes. Uncle, I had a whole damn street blocked off of the way where you be paying me every time you roll. Oh, God.

Hey, I'm going to get the utilities, and I'm going to get Park Pace and Boardwalk.

Hey, he playing a board game clue, but don't got a clue about what I'm gonna do to him.

1:23:17Shannon Sharpe:Yeah you do.

1:23:22Shannon Sharpe:If you have them too quick, The only thing that's going to be far apart is your sleep schedule. Hello. That's fine. Yeah. That's fine. That's the good thing about it. No, it ain't. Hey, one of the greatest things in life is having an infant and getting them on your schedule. Don't let them dictate when they wake up and when they go to sleep. You dictate to them. You got to establish dominance as a parent early. Man, what's wrong with this dude, bro? I'm just telling you what I've done. I got 85 kids, Joe. I got this now. And they was, what you call them, with their mom during the season. And they was with me during the offseason.

1:24:01Matter of fact, you see, I got about 37 up with me now.

1:24:04Shannon Sharpe:But they was already on the schedule by the time you got them. I made the schedule. Okay. Mark Slim again. Can we finally put Sam Donald in the top three quarterbacks the last two seasons? Super Bowl rang better. So, with that being said, you would take Sam Darnold over Mahomes, Burrell, Jackson, Allen. No, he ain't doing that, man.

1:24:34Shannon Sharpe:Look, and I see this is where it's headed, Ocho, that now the Super Bowl ring is the end-all, be-all. Hell no. But when did this happen? Because nobody said Brad Johnson was a top three quarterback when he won the Super Bowl for Tampa Bay. Nobody said that Trent Dilfer was. Nobody even said Russell Wilson was a top three quarterback when he won it.

1:24:59Shannon Sharpe:But this day, I guess not rings me. It is what it is. Sir Cates, my guys, what matters more in building a champion, a system or a superstar that can break the system? See you need a Nowadays in the NBA You need a star bro NFL I'm going with the system Mainly defense
